| Is there any chance you'll be updating the 2.6.32-rc*zen to match the official bfs-311 patch now out for 2.6.32-rc8 or are you going to be sticking to your own port? |

I can't answer questions that have been answered by git already  !!!! con's version ported a couple more things than I had, although I think he said that it may not work or even compile on all architectures, i havent heard any complaints yet

Happy holidays, guys! 
I'd like to give Zen sources a try on my gaming machine, a Core2 Duo E7300 on an ASUS P5QL Pro mobo; it has an nVidia GeForce 8800GT. I also have a Dell laptop, an XPS 1640 with an ATI Radeon 3670. Anything special I should know before starting?

Great! I've seen Phoronix Test Suite benchmarks (in the previous thread IIRC) show 2.6.32 is much faster than 2.6.31; I guess that's the one to chose for speed, right?

No, there will not be much speed difference between 2.6.32-zen and 2.6.31-zen (especially when using bfs, but also when using cfs), 2.6.32 and 2.6.31 linus there is a big difference so yes
